    Hi I was wondering if I can tune for e85 via just the mini afc or if I need to get it done in the pcm.
    Thanks mike

    no one really does mail order e 85 tunes yet. you'll want to find some one local, ( we got guys with tuners in co) to in car tune it, or buy a tuner and learn to tune.

    Thanks I didn't think it would be that easy but I wanted to ask. I have been looking for someone in Colorado to do some tuning for almost a year. I just don't know enough about that to be comfortable messing with it.

    Learning to tune can be a big undertaking but the way I look at it it is an investment and skill worth learning. Its a great way to earn a few extra bucks, and help other car enthusiasts out. Lots to learn but it's doable.

    for just under 300 bucks you can get the avt box and use dhp for free on all its supported cars.

    I had a dhp once but could never get it to work right so I gave up on it. Maybe I will invest in hp tuner and try and learn some stuff. Thanks for the help guys
